Current report
The acquisition of OmniMax may not achieve its intended benefits, and certain difficulties, costs or expenses may outweigh such intended benefits.
Current report
The Company may be unable to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of OmniMax. The success of the acquisition will depend, in part, on its ability to realize the anticipated benefits of combining the Company’s residential business with the OmniMax business, including cost and revenue synergies. The anticipated benefits and synergies of the Company’s acquisition of OmniMax may not be realized fully or at all, may take longer to realize than expected or could have other adverse effects that the Company does not currently foresee.
Current report
Some of the assumptions that the Company has made, such as the achievement of operating synergies, may not be realized. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key Company or OmniMax employees, the loss of customers, the disruption of the Company’s or OmniMax’s ongoing businesses, inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies, unexpected integration issues, higher than expected integration costs and an overall post-completion integration process that takes longer than originally anticipated. There could be potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses associated with the acquisition of OmniMax that were not discovered in the course of performing due diligence or that arise from the combination of the businesses. Specifically, the following issues, among others, must be addressed in integrating the operations of OmniMax into the Company to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of OmniMax so the Company performs as expected and realizes its anticipated cost and revenue synergy opportunities:
Current report
•combining the existing businesses of the Company with that of OmniMax and meeting the capital requirements of the Company following the acquisition, in a manner that permits the Company to achieve cost savings and revenue synergies anticipated to result from the acquisition, the failure of which would result in the anticipated benefits of the acquisition not being realized in the time frame currently anticipated or at all;
Current report
•harmonizing operating practices, employee development and compensation programs, internal controls and other policies, procedures and processes;
Current report
•maintaining existing agreements with customers, providers and vendors and avoiding delays in entering into new agreements with prospective customers, providers and vendors;
Current report
•coordinating distribution and marketing efforts;
Current report
•managing the movement of certain positions to different locations; and
Current report
•coordinating geographically dispersed organizations.
Current report
In addition, at times the attention of members of the Company’s management and resources may be focused on the integration of the OmniMax business and diverted from day-to-day business operations or other opportunities that may have been beneficial to the Company, which may disrupt the Company’s business.
Current report
The Company has incurred and will incur significant transaction and integration costs in connection with the acquisition of OmniMax.
Current report
The Company has incurred a number of non-recurring costs associated with integrating the operations of OmniMax, as well as transaction fees and other costs related to the acquisition of OmniMax. These costs and expenses include fees paid to financial, legal and accounting advisors, and other related charges.
Current report
The Company will continue to incur integration costs as there are a large number of processes, policies, procedures, operations, technologies, facilities and systems that must be integrated. Although the Company expects that the elimination of duplicative costs, strategic benefits, additional income as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses may offset incremental transaction, acquisition-related and integration costs over time, any net benefit may not be achieved in the near term or at all. While the Company assumed that certain expenses would be incurred in connection with the acquisition of OmniMax, there are many factors beyond the Company’s control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration and implementation expenses.
Current report
Prior to the acquisition of OmniMax, OmniMax was a privately-held company and its new obligations of being a part of a public company may require significant resources and management attention.
Current report
Upon the closing of the acquisition of OmniMax, OmniMax and its subsidiaries became subsidiaries of the Company, and now need to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC and other regulatory bodies. As a private company, OmniMax’s internal controls were not designed to be in compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley or any other public company requirements. The Company will need to ensure that OmniMax establishes and maintains effective disclosure controls as well as internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, and such compliance efforts may be costly and may divert the attention of management. If the Company fails to create and maintain effective internal controls at OmniMax and its subsidiaries after the acquisition, the Company could report material weaknesses in the future, which would indicate that there is a reasonable possibility that the Company’s financial statements do not accurately reflect the Company’s financial condition.
Current report
The Company may not have discovered undisclosed liabilities of OmniMax, if any.
Current report
In the course of the due diligence review of OmniMax that the Company conducted prior to the acquisition of OmniMax, the Company may have been unable to quantify undisclosed liabilities of OmniMax and its subsidiaries, if any, and the Company will not be indemnified for any of these liabilities. If OmniMax has undisclosed liabilities, the Company, as a successor owner, will be responsible for such undisclosed liabilities. Such undisclosed liabilities could have an adverse effect on the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.
Current report
Acquisition accounting adjustments could adversely affect the Company’s financial results.
Current report
The Company will account for the completion of the acquisition of OmniMax using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company will allocate the total estimated purchase price to net tangible assets, amortizable intangible assets and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and based on their fair values as of the date of completion of the acquisition of OmniMax record the excess, if any, of the purchase price over those fair values as goodwill. Differences between preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may occur, and these differences could have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.
Current report
The Company incurred substantial indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of OmniMax.
Current report
The Company incurred substantial indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of OmniMax. As of the closing of the acquisition, on a consolidated basis, the Company had approximately $1.3 billion in gross indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s Credit Agreement including (a) the Term Loan A Facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $650 million, (b) the Term Loan B Facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of $650 million and (c) the Revolving Credit Facility in an initial aggregate commitment amount of $500 million, with the Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility fully drawn and approximately $482 million remaining available under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Current report
The Company’s high level of debt could have important consequences, including:
Current report
•making it more difficult for the Company to satisfy its obligations with respect to its debt;
Current report
•requiring the Company to dedicate a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to the payment of interest and the repayment of the Company’s indebtedness, thereby reducing funds available to it for other purposes;
Current report
•limiting the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, business development or other general corporate requirements, including dividends, if and when declared by the board of directors;
Current report
•increasing the Company’s vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
Current report
•making the Company more highly leveraged than some of its competitors, which may place its at a competitive disadvantage;
Current report
•restricting the Company from making strategic acquisitions, engaging in development activities or exploiting business opportunities;
Current report
•exposing the Company to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of the Company’s borrowings are and may in the future be at variable rates of interest;
Current report
•limiting the Company’s flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in its industry; and
Current report
While the Company aims to deleverage its capital structure over the next few years, the methods the Company may pursue and the timing, extent and impact of any actions in furtherance of this goal may vary and evolve and there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its efforts to deleverage.
Current report
Servicing the Company’s debt requires a significant amount of cash, and the Company may not have sufficient cash flow from its business to pay its substantial debt.
Current report
The Company’s ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on, and to refinance its debt, depends on its future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors. The Company’s business may not continue to generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to satisfy its obligations under its current indebtedness and any future indebtedness the Company may incur and to make necessary capital expenditures. If the Company is unable to generate such cash flow, it may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, refinancing or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. The Company’s ability to refinance its outstanding indebtedness or future indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and its financial condition at such time. The Company may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms when needed, which could result in a default on its indebtedness.
Current report
The Company’s debt agreements contain restrictions that limit its flexibility in operating its business.
Current report
The Credit Agreement contains, and any other existing or future indebtedness of the Company would likely contain, covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on the Company, including restrictions on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things:

Previous report
The Company is subject to the risk of tariffs and other restrictions on import of solar modules, which have adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect its Renewables business.
Previous report
Tariffs placed on imported products used by the Company's customers, such as solar modules, have and could continue to affect cost and availability of these products to the Company's customers which could impact the demand for the Company's products or services. Furthermore, while the Company does not sell or import solar modules, the goods and services the Company provides for its customers in the Renewables segment depends upon the supply of solar modules for which such shortages or import challenges have resulted in project delays over the past three years. The supply has been primarily impacted by two regulatory items relative to anti-dumping and countervailing duties and importation requirements for sourcing of solar modules. While these have lessened over the past year, they have impacted the timing and progress of the Company's customers' projects. As a result, the Company's operating results have been and could be further adversely impacted by an additional determinations or additional claims and investigations initiated by government.
Previous report
Demand for products in the Company’s Residential segment depends primarily on the level of repair and remodel activity and, to a lesser extent, new construction activity, which are in turn impacted by interest rates and inflation. The combination of high interest rates and high inflation in recent years has reduced the affordability of mortgages and increased the cost of home improvement projects. These trends could and may have resulted in reduced levels of repair and remodel as well as new construction activity and demand for the Company’s products, and, while inflation levels have moderated in recent months, the Company anticipates that these trends may continue for the foreseeable future. While home prices and equity levels of current homeowners remained strong throughout 2024, elevated interest rates could cause home prices to decrease and a weakness or reduction in home prices may result in a decreased demand for the Company’s residential products. The Company cannot predict if or when interest rates or inflation levels will decline or, once they have declined, if they will remain low, or the impact that any such decline may have on home prices, repair and remodel activity, new construction activity, demand for the Company’s products, the Company’s business generally or its financial condition.

Risks Related to Financing and Accounting Matters
Previous report
The Company provides product warranties and, if the Company's product warranty obligations were significantly in excess of its reserves, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Previous report
The Company provides various warranties on its products and services, depending on the product and service and subject to various limitations. Management estimates warranty reserves, based on factors such as historical warranty costs and short- and long-term warranty trends by product, as a proportion of sales by product. Management also considers various relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the Company’s stated warranty policies and procedures, as part of the evaluation of the Company’s warranty liability. Because warranty issues may surface later in the life cycle of a product, management continues to review these estimates on a regular basis and considers adjustments to these estimates based on actual experience compared to historical estimates. Estimating the required warranty reserves requires a high level of judgment, especially as many of the Company’s products are at a relatively early stage in their product life cycles, and the Company cannot be sure that its warranty reserves will be adequate for all warranty claims that arise. Material warranty obligations, including, but not limited to, those in excess of the Company’s reserves, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Previous report
Increases in future levels of leverage and size of debt service obligations could adversely affect the Company's ability to raise additional capital to fund the Company's operations, limit the Company's ability to react to changes in the economy or the Company's industries and prevent the Company from meeting the Company's obligations.
Previous report
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had no outstanding indebtedness, but has $395.1 million available for borrowing under its revolving credit facility. The Company's ability to make scheduled payments on, or refinance, its future debt obligations depend on the Company's financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic, industry and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond the Company's control. The Company may need to incur debt in the future to fund strategic acquisitions, investments or for other purposes, which debt could have significant adverse consequences to the Company's business. Any sustained weakness in general economic conditions and/or U.S. or global capital markets could adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital on favorable terms or at all. The Company’s access to funds under its credit facility is dependent on the ability of the financial institutions that are parties to that facility to meet their funding commitments. Those financial institutions may not be able to meet their funding commitments if they experience shortages of capital and liquidity or if they experience excessive volumes of borrowing requests within a short period of time. Longer term volatility and continued disruptions in the capital and credit markets as a result of uncertainty, changing or increased regulation of financial institutions, reduced alternatives or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely affect the Company’s access to the liquidity needed for its businesses in the longer term. Such disruptions could require the Company to take measures to conserve cash until the markets stabilize or until alternative credit arrangements or other funding for its business needs can be arranged. The Company's Credit Agreement entered into on December 8, 2022, contains several financial and other restrictive covenants. A significant decline in the Company's operating income or use of the Company's Credit Agreement (or other additional indebtedness) for acquisitions, operations and capital expenditures could cause the Company to violate these covenants which could result in the Company incurring additional financing fees that would be costly and adversely affect the Company's profitability and cash flows.
Previous report
The expiration, elimination or reduction of solar rebates, credits and incentives may adversely impact the Company's business, results of operations, and cash flows.
Previous report
A variety of federal, state and local government agencies provide incentives to promote electricity generation from renewable sources such as solar power. These incentives are in the form of rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives which help to motivate end users, distributors, system integrators and others to install solar powered generating systems. Any changes to reduce, shorten or eliminate the scope and availability of these incentive programs could materially and adversely impact the demand for the Company's related products, and the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Previous report
The timing and progress of many of the Company's renewable energy customers’ projects are impacted by incentives provided by the Federal solar tax credit also known as Investment Tax Credits ("ITC"). The Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") signed into law on August 16, 2022, among other things, provides for a variety of enhanced ITC and Production Tax Credits for renewable energy systems subject to specific dates and requirements. Demand for the Company's products could be adversely impacted if the Company does not meet the above standards in order to enable its customer to obtain the full enhanced tax credits.
Reworded paragraphs (19)
Previous wording
The Company's principal raw materials are commodity products primarily consisting of steel, aluminum, and resins. The Company also purchases component parts such as glass for greenhouse roofing systems. As a result, the Company is exposed to changes in the price and availability of steel, aluminum, resins and glass. Furthermore, although not purchased by the Company, the Company also has exposure related to the availability of solar modules which has impacted the installation of, and which can and has reduced demand for, the Company's solar racking projects, as experienced in 2022, 2023 and 2024. The availability and pricing of raw materials and component parts can be volatile due to a number of factors beyond the Company's control, including general economic conditions, domestic and worldwide supply and demand, labor costs and availability, competition, freight costs and transportation, import duties, tariffs, and currency exchange rates. The Company may not be successful in passing along pricing increases to its customers or in its efforts to mitigate the impact of supply chain disruptions.

Previous wording
Demand for products in the Company’s Residential segment is significantly influenced by a number of economic factors affecting its customers, including distributors, dealers, retailers, contractors, architects, builders, homeowners and institutional and commercial consumers. Demand for products in the Company’s Residential segment depends on the level of residential improvement and renovation and new construction activity, and, in particular, the amount of spending on living spaces and home exteriors. Home and commercial renovation and improvement and new construction activity are affected by, among other things, interest rates, consumer confidence and spending habits, demographic trends, housing affordability levels, unemployment rates, institutional funding constraints, industrial production levels, tariffs, actual inflation levels and uncertainty with respect to future inflation levels, recession possibility and general economic conditions.

The Company’s business would suffer if the Company does not effectively manage its manufacturing processes, including, without limitation, adjusting production to meet demand, integrating new manufacturing facilities, and achieving cost-savings initiatives.
Current wording
The Company’s business would suffer if the Company does not effectively manage its manufacturing processes, including, without limitation, integrating new manufacturing facilities, adjusting production to meet demand, and achieving cost-savings initiatives.
Previous wording
The Company continually reviews its manufacturing operations in an effort to achieve increased manufacturing efficiencies, to integrate new technologies and to address changes in its product lines and in-market demand. Periodic manufacturing integrations, realignments and cost-savings programs and other changes have adversely affected, and could in the future adversely affect, its operating efficiency and results of operations during the periods in which such programs are being implemented. Such programs may include the addition of manufacturing lines and the consolidation, integration and upgrading of facilities, functions, systems and procedures, including the introduction of new manufacturing technologies and product innovations. These programs involve substantial planning, often require capital investments, and may result in charges for fixed asset impairments or obsolescence and substantial severance costs. The Company’s ability to achieve cost savings or other benefits within the time frames the Company anticipates is subject to many estimates and assumptions, a number of which are subject to significant economic, competitive and other uncertainties. While the Company anticipates that enhancing these capabilities will ultimately decrease its costs, the introduction of these capabilities has required significant initial investment, and the Company cannot be certain it will realize the benefits of this initiative when anticipated or at all. If these investments and other changes are not effectively integrated into the Company’s manufacturing processes, the Company may suffer from production delays, lower efficiency and manufacturing yields, increased costs and reduced net sales.
Current wording
The Company continually reviews its manufacturing operations in an effort to achieve increased manufacturing efficiencies, to integrate new technologies and to address changes in its product lines, in-market demand and acquisitions and dispositions. In particular, the Company will be reviewing its manufacturing processes in light of the acquisition of OmniMax and integration of OmniMax's manufacturing capacity. Manufacturing integrations, realignments and cost-savings programs and other changes have adversely affected, and could in the future adversely affect, the Company's operating efficiency and results of operations during the periods in which such programs are being implemented.

Previous wording
A loss of sales from the Company's significant customers, whether due to a decrease in demand from the end markets the Company serves, the loss or bankruptcy of any significant customer, a decrease in the prices that the Company can realize from sales of its products to its significant customers, or a significant decrease in business from any of the Company's significant customers, could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and cash flows. The Company's ten largest customers accounted for approximately 38%, 37%, and 41% of the Company's net sales during 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively, with its largest customer accounting for approximately 12%, 13% and 14% of the Company's consolidated net sales during each of the years 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. If the Company loses business from one or more of these customers, the Company's business, results of operations, and cash flows would be adversely affected.

Current wording
The Company encounters a high degree of competition in each of its segments and increased competition or failure to successfully compete could reduce the Company's revenue, gross profit, net income, and cash flows.
Previous wording
Each of the Company's segments operates in a highly competitive business environment and encounters a high degree of competition from a number of competitors. Competition is based primarily on product functionality, quality, price, raw material and inventory availability, as well as the ability to meet delivery and construction schedules dictated by customers. Additionally, the principal markets the Company participates in are characterized by changing technologies and new products and services, thus the Company also faces competition from the introduction of new products and services or technologies by competitors. The Company competes in its principal markets with companies of various sizes, some of which have greater scale, access to capital and other resources than the Company, and may have more established brand names and may be better able to withstand a change in conditions in the principal markets the Company serves. Increased competition could force the Company to lower its prices or to offer additional services or enhanced products at a higher cost to the Company, which could reduce the Company's gross profit, net income, and cash flow, and could cause the Company to lose market share. Further, if the Company does not have sufficient resources to invest or is otherwise unable to correctly identify customer needs and preferences, innovate and drive improvements or efficiencies in existing products, develop new products, technologies or services in the markets the Company participates in, or successfully commercialize its innovation efforts, the Company may lose market share. Even when the Company successfully innovates and develops new and enhanced products and services, the Company often incurs substantial costs in doing so, and the Company's revenue, gross profit, net income and cash flows may be impacted.

The Company's ongoing and expected restructuring plans and other cost savings initiatives, including those associated with the integration of the OmniMax business, may not be as effective as the Company anticipates, and the Company may fail to realize the cost savings and increased efficiencies that the Company expects to result from these actions, which could negatively affect the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
Previous wording
The Company continually strives to simplify or improve processes, eliminate excess capacity and reduce costs in all areas of its operations, which from time to time includes restructuring and integration activities. The Company has implemented significant restructuring and integration activities across its manufacturing, sales and distribution footprint, which include workforce reductions and facility consolidations. Costs of future initiatives may be material and the savings associated with them are subject to a variety of risks, including the Company's inability to effectively eliminate duplicative back-office overhead, overlapping sales personnel, rationalize manufacturing capacity, synchronize information technology systems, consolidate warehousing and distribution facilities and shift production to more economical facilities. As a result, the contemplated costs to effect these initiatives may materially exceed estimates. The initiatives the Company is contemplating may require consultation with various employees and consultants which may influence the timing, costs and extent of expected savings and may result in the loss of skilled employees in connection with the initiatives.

The Company maintains customary insurance policies for businesses of its type, including property, business interruption, product liability and casualty insurance coverage, but such insurance may not provide adequate coverage against potential claims, including losses resulting from interruptions in the Company’s production capability or product liability claims relating to the products the Company manufactures. Consistent with market conditions in the insurance industry, premiums and deductibles for some of the Company’s insurance policies have increased in recent years, sometimes substantially, and may, in the future, increase further. In some instances, some types of insurance may become available only for reduced amounts of coverage, if at all. In addition, the Company’s insurers could deny coverage for claims. If the Company were to incur a significant liability for which its as not fully insured or that its insurers disputed, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

The Company maintains customary insurance policies for businesses of its type, including property, business interruption, product liability and casualty insurance coverage, but such insurance may not provide adequate coverage against potential claims, including losses resulting from interruptions in the Company’s production capability or product liability claims relating to the products the Company manufactures. Consistent with market conditions in the insurance industry, premiums and deductibles for some of the Company’s insurance policies have increased in recent years, sometimes substantially, and may, in the future, increase further. In some instances, some types of insurance may become available only for reduced amounts of coverage, if at all. In addition, the Company’s insurers could deny coverage for claims. If the Company were to incur a significant liability for which it was not fully insured or that its insurers disputed, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Terror attacks, war, or other civil disturbances, natural or man-made disasters (which may become more frequent due to climate change), other catastrophic events or public health crises could cause catastrophic loss or other material damage to the Company's facilities or lead to economic instability, decreased capacity to produce the Company's products and decreased demand for the Company's products. The Company has experienced operating disruptions related to severe weather across the U.S. From time to time, terrorist attacks worldwide have caused instability in global financial markets. The Company continues to monitor the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as other conflicts, including the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, for any potential disruptions to the Company's operations. The Company could incur uninsured losses and liabilities arising from such events, and any resulting business interruptions could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and cash flows.

Tariffs imposed in the U.S. on certain steel and aluminum products imported into the U.S. have created volatility in the market and have increased the costs of these inputs. Increased costs for imported steel and aluminum products have led domestic sellers to respond with market-based increases to prices for such inputs as well. These tariffs, along with any additional tariffs or trade restrictions that may be implemented by the U.S. or other countries, could result in further increased costs, shifting in competitive positions and a decreased available supply of steel, resins and aluminum as well as additional imported components and inputs. The Company may not be able to pass price increases on to its customers and may not be able to secure adequate alternative sources of steel, resins and aluminum on a timely basis. While retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on U.S. goods have not yet had a significant impact, the Company cannot predict further developments. The tariffs could adversely affect the

The Company is a party in product liability and other claims relating to the products the Company manufactured and distributed. Although the Company currently maintains what the Company believes to be suitable and adequate insurance in excess of the Company's self-insured amounts for product liability and other claims, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain such insurance on acceptable terms or that such insurance will provide adequate protection against potential liabilities. Product liability claims could be expensive to defend and could divert the attention of the Company's management and other personnel for significant periods of time, regardless of the ultimate outcome. Claims of this nature could also have a negative impact on customer confidence in the Company's products, the Company's brands and the Company. The Company cannot assure you that any current or future claims will not adversely affect the Company's reputation, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows.

The Company has also acquired and expects to continue to acquire businesses and facilities to add to the Company's operations. While the Company sometimes receives indemnification for pre-existing environmental contamination, the party providing the indemnification may not have sufficient resources to cover the cost of any required measures. Certain facilities of the Company have been in operation for many years and the Company may be liable for remediation of any contamination at the Company's current or former facilities; or at off-site locations where waste has been sent for disposal, regardless of fault or whether the Company, its predecessors or others are responsible for such contamination. The Company has been responsible for remediation of contamination at some of the Company's locations, and while such costs have not been material to date, the cost of remediation of any of these and any newly-discovered contamination cannot be quantified, and the Company cannot assure you that it will not materially affect the Company's profits or cash flows. Changes in laws, regulations or enforcement policies, including without limitation new or additional regulations affecting disposal of hazardous substances and waste, greenhouse gas emissions or use of fossil fuels, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, or results of operations.
